Instant Pot® Mashed Cauliflower with Garlic image

Using very little liquid, your electric pressure cooker can whip up creamy mashed cauliflower in next to no time. Feel free to add additional Parmesan or any other shredded cheese you like. For a vegan version, use oil in place of butter, skip the cheese entirely, and stir in some nutritional yeast or ground chipotle at the end for additional flavor.

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons butter, or more to taste
2 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped, or more to taste
1 large head cauliflower, finely chopped
¼ cup vegetable broth
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Melt butter in the pot and add garlic. Stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add cauliflower; stir until cauliflower is coated in butter and starting to become tender, about 5 minutes. Add broth. Close and lock the lid. Choose high pressure and set timer for 5 minutes. Allow time for pressure to build.

This recipe was a disappointment. The cauliflower was bland and watery. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out well. I would not recommend this recipe.

I'm not a big fan of cauliflower, but I actually really liked this recipe. The cauliflower was so creamy and flavorful, and the garlic added a nice touch. I would definitely make this again.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth it. The mashed cauliflower is so creamy and flavorful. I would recommend this recipe to anyone who loves mashed potatoes but is looking for a healthier alternative.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover cauliflower. I had some leftover from making roasted cauliflower, and I didn't want it to go to waste. This recipe was a perfect way to use it up.

I made this recipe for a party last weekend, and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved it, even the people who don't usually like cauliflower. I will definitely be making this again for my next party.

Meh. I thought this recipe was just okay. The cauliflower was a little bland, even with the garlic. I probably won't make this again.

This recipe is a lifesaver! I'm on a low-carb diet, and I was craving mashed potatoes. This recipe satisfied my craving without all the carbs. I will definitely be making this again and again.

Delicious! I made this for dinner last night and my whole family loved it. Even my picky kids ate it without complaint. I will definitely be making this again.

I've made mashed cauliflower before, but this recipe is by far the best. The addition of garlic really makes a difference. I also like that this recipe doesn't use any butter or cream, so it's a healthier option.
